Mike C Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 which are the best 12" VIBE subs you can get for a sealed enclosure? price is unimportant cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drk_red_Mk5 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 if money not a problem, go for a 'space' sub. they are silver and have a aluminium cone. they are the dogs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 I really want VIBE to go with my other subs within their raange, price is not a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_aaron Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 (edited) Vibe's are supposed to be in ported box's (Vented Innovative Bass Enclosures)But saying that, i put both my 12" Blackairs into sealed box's and my god the dont half kick, compared the exact same subs with my mates with the proper vibe box, and mine kicked ALOT harder than his, but he got a better roll with the bass and also could go deeper. as said above though, best vibe do (they have 12 or so of the following in their landrover vouge) is the 'SPACE' series.RMS Power 1000w (gona needa hoofa amp)Peak Power 3000w Recommended Amp: MonoBox III, IV Recommended Vol. 2.5Cu.Ft. (pretty big box too)Click here for bigger, more detailed pic I'd STRONGLY recommend if you get these to get a ported box, it will help ALOT with the cooling of the magnet ETC.....but asying that i just spotted this on their siteHeat is dissipated directly through the front of the lightweight alloy super rigid cone which is seamlessly attached to flanged dual high temperature alloy voice coils and set in dual layer foam surrounds, which means massive power and serious cone excursion. Admiration guaranteed.Source Mikey boy IMO if i was spending the cash on these, i'd want to to run as VIBE built it to (ported)hope this helps EDIT: £155.00EA from www.incarelectrics.co.ukNONE on ebay thats the only price i can find lol Edited July 26, 2005 by geordie_aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3V HA Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 IMO, dont buy VIBE mike, if you want the best dude, go for JL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 I love JL, but ,ike consistency was split before the whether to go for JL cos they are wicked sealed or might just get 'em vented hmmmmm, decisions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I hope you guys realise that a quoted power figure is only relative to whether the speaker is spec'd for a ported or sealed enclosure. A "1000w RMS" sub designed for a sealed enclosure, would Shite itself to the moon and back if you ran anywhere near that power with it in a ported enclosure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennys_Si Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 well i am running 2 vibe space 15s in a 5cuft sealed enclosure, running both subs off the monoblock iv. they are great subs take a pounding and keep coming back. as far as i know the enclosure sizes are quoted for ported boxes, so if you do seal them make the box about half to a cubic foot smaller especially for the 12's, they will be nice and tight that way.
